Are 20 times less sensitive to Scale and temperature gradients compared to two-color sensors

Are 20 to 100 times less sensitive to optical obstruction and misalignment compared to two-color sensors

The video below demonstrates a side-by-side comparison between an existing 2-color pyrometer and two Williamson Dual-Wavelength Pyrometers. Williamson Dual-Wavelength pyrometers are 20 times less sensitive to scale due to greater separation between wavelengths, when compared with 2-color pyrometers. Two-color sensors are an appropriate choice for many common temperature measurement applications. However, when certain conditions are present such as water, steam, scale, severe temperature gradients, severe or intermittent optical obstruction, flames, combustion gasses, laser energy, plasma, small targets and low temperatures, or when real-time emissivity measurements, measurement condition validation, or calibration stability are required, dual-wavelength pyrometers are a more appropriate choice.

AP Tech is a manufacturer of gas handling components – primarily pressure regulators and valves. AP Tech products are known to deliver gases with uncompromising quality, performance and reliability.

AP Tech’s competitive advantage are products that deliver specialty gases for high purity through ultra high purity applications. Starting from the source vessel to point of use and into the process tool or equipment itself,

Mobile app: A mobile app is available to commission and maintain the Sensepoint XRL gas detector.

Honeywell innovation enables customers to pair the gas detector with their mobile phone, and then use an app to perform many tasks related to installation, commissioning and maintenance. By using Honeywell's Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology, you can install, commission and maintain your Sensepoint XRL gas detector from your mobile device. By using their gas detector app you can mange the device from up to 10 meters away.

Sensepoint XRL is available as a flammable gas detector for the detection of potentially explosive gases, or as a toxic gas detector for the detection of a range of toxic gas hazards commonly found in industrial facilities.
